Synopsis

From the coffeehouses of Greenwich Village to the stage of Woodstock, folksingers became a powerful cultural force in the 1960s. Mixing music and politics, tradition and innovation, romance and righteousness, these men and women were outspoken voices for their generation, each with a story to tell.

This collection of profiles and essays by veteran music journalist Bruce Pollock, a Village resident and clubgoer during its heyday, documents the evolution of folk musicians from passing the hat to topping the charts.

Artists featured: Dave Van Ronk, Phil Ochs, Richie Havens, Tuli Kupferberg, Melanie, Buffy Sainte-Marie, Eric Andersen, Peter, Paul & Mary, Roger McGuinn, John Sebastian, Peter Tork, Maria Muldaur, Loudon Wainwright III, Janis Ian, The Roches, Harry Chapin, Suzanne Vega, Don McLean and Leonard Cohen, with a cameo by Bob Dylan.
